Off-road self-recovery basics for the solo adventurer | Driving.ca

#offroad #winching #eBayMotors

It’s easy to head into a trail, but another to know how to get out. This guide demonstrates a variety of basic recovery items and techniques, primarily oriented toward the solo adventurer. As an automotive journalist who frequently tests and self-shoots off-road vehicles without another driver or vehicle on hand for backup, these tools and techniques are important reassurances that I can get myself home.

Thanks to eBay Motors for equipping us for this guide. The specific items shown are trusted brand-name pieces chosen for their specific qualities and manufacturer reputations, all found in regular eBay listings and contributed for this guide by eBay Motors. You can find myriad alternatives at a wide range of prices on eBay or in dusty stores, but the specific quality gear seen here won’t be on the shelf at Princess.
